Here are my 2 cents:
- First of all I think the onboarding period is often too short. I observed that 3-4 weeks of preparations are of most help to new employees (with no or little professional experience)
- Onboarding activities should be well documented.
Here are several real-world examples I created for a node.js backend developer that takes ± a month:
- Development methodology
- Programming Paradigms (Event loop, Promise chaining (for legacy codes), async-await, functional programming, ES6, exception handling)
- Most frequently used libraries (mocha, sequelize, express, async etc.)
- Version Control System (Git)
- Tools (VS Code, ESLint, debugging)
- In house libraries
- Actual Code Structure
- A task in the sprint (TBD later on)
